But if lots of people canceled the pre order the game wouldn't be sold out right now.

Do you know how cancelled preorders are handled?

Anyway we need to calm expectations a little here. It's 55th and 91st on the monthly so it's clear that Amazon hasn't had a huge allocation of the the game. And while these positions are respectable for a game 2 months from launch, we know that the beta is a huge factor for pushing the game over the last week or so. 

While I expect the game to do relatively well, we need refrain from blowing our loads over congratulating Rare on success that isn't even there yet.

I'm not saying that it will be a hit or anything but I'm just happy the beta pushed pre orders.

Now I'm not sure how they work but I'm assuming that if someone cancels a pre order their copy of the game can still be bought so if all copies are sold out that means that's not many people have canceled their pre order yet.
